Racism - Kick It Out!

[Anti-Frizz]

Kick It Out is football?s anti-racism campaign.

The brand name of the campaign - Let?s Kick Racism Out of Football - was established in 1993.

Kick It Out works throughout the football, educational and community sectors to challenge racism and work for positive change.

The campaign is supported and funded by the game?s governing bodies, including founding body the Professional Footballers Association (PFA), the FA Premier League, the Football Foundation and The Football Association.

2004 marked ten years of campaigning.

Their core priorities are:

Professional football
Working with the professional game by offering advice and guidance on all aspects of race equality within professional football.

Young people
Using the appeal of the game to address young people within schools, colleges and youth organisations, through the development and delivery of resources and educational materials.

Amateur football
Working at grassroots and amateur levels to tackle racial abuse and harassment in parks football.

Asians in football
Raising the issue of the exclusion of south Asians as professional footballers from the game.

Black communities
Capacity building local ethnic minority communities to engage with professional clubs and the structures of the game.

European football
Developing partnerships to raise the debate and tackle racism in European football.

Report racists ? if you receive racist abuse, or see or hear someone making racist comments or gestures, you should report it ? to the police; to a teacher or coach; to the club if you are a fan; or to the local authority if it occurs on your local council pitch.

I believe Seriously in kick out racism, i think that it is very important for people to understand that, just because people are a different colour, does not mean they are different or strange, but just from a different race.
I think that racists need to grow up, and stop being really sad.
Racism, is very offensive and remember Just because someone is a different colour or even a different Size, or has a different weight its all a form of Bullying.
So quit the bullying, racism, and quit it all NOW!, there is no need for it.

Racism - Kick it Out,
Not just out of football but out of our lives
